Seagate Technology plc (NASDAQ: STX) today announced Seagate
Business Storage, its newest network-attached storage (NAS) product
line for small office / home office (SOHO), remote mobile office
(RMO) and small to medium-sized business organizations (SMBs). To
address the changing needs of growing businesses, Seagate Business
Storage delivers centralized backup, data protection and remote
access to critical business information in capacities ranging from
2TB up to 16TBs.

For business collaboration and backup protection, the new
Seagate Business Storage provides a secure cost-effective solution
that works well with existing cloud backup and online sharing
services. Business Storage’s centralized backup capability takes
the guesswork out of providing employees with backup protection and
sharing across multiple computing platforms. Designed to backup all
PC and Mac computers in an organization to a single centralized
location, this new NAS includes backup software for Windows PCs and
is also compatible with Apple’s Time Machine® for backup of Mac OSX
computers.
Today’s small businesses have new challenges with even the
smallest of organizations consisting of employees working remotely.
In this common scenario, sharing of information in a secure manner
becomes essential to a business’s success. Seagate Business Storage
is essentially a private cloud, which can reside in a single office
location and is capable of providing access via both Android and
iOS applications for mobile devices and a secure networked
connection from any notebook. Additionally, for those important
files that need increased protection, this new network attached
storage also provides hardware encryption for select files.
“Business demand for additional storage will continue to grow
and the public cloud is not always the most cost effective or
perceived securest option for small businesses,” said Liz Conner,
senior research analyst for personal & entry level storage at
IDC. “We will continue to see local network attached storage
provide one of the best options for these growing business.
Security, data redundancy, and remote access are all features that
will play vital role in the near term as well as the foreseeable
future.”
Plug-n-play removable storage (USM)
The 2 and 4 Bay versions of Seagate Business Storage deliver
maximum data protection by providing redundant backups of the
information stored on the device. Also, the addition of a Universal
Storage Module (USM) slot allows for plug-n-play removable external
drives to be input and removed from the device for improved
workflow and offsite backup capability.
“Seagate has spent a lot of time understanding small businesses
and their storage needs, which in many cases are unique to them,”
said Scott Horn, vice president of Marketing for Seagate. “Seagate
has designed this new networked attached storage to address the
changing needs that a growing small business faces. We’re excited
for our small business customers to get their hands on this
innovative new product. We’ve added features that will give them
additional flexibility in data access and workflow, along with the
peace of mind that comes with the Seagate brand.”
